most of us couldn't prove citizenship if ICE stopped us...unless we carry our passports.
As an aside, do US officials accept passport as a definitive proof of citizenship? Most places don't, these days. It is a travel document with a strong correlation to citizenship, but that's not quite the same. As a random example, a non-citizen working in a diplomacy-adjacent job may have a passport. I have a friend in that category, though not in the US.
Though of course if birthright citizenship is overturned in the US, in effect ruling out birth certificates as definitive proof, I'm not exactly sure what would count as proof of citizenship...
Glad it's not me.
